A professor and a student discuss formatting a paper in this podcast.
TOEFL® Podcast 2
Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
Student: Excuse me, professor. Do you have a minute?
Professor: Sure, I can spare a little time right now. What can I do for you?
Student: I wanted to ask you if it is possible to hand in a draft of the paper to see if I'm on the right track?
Professor: I'm afraid not. I have to be fair to the other students, and I didn't offer them the same opportunity.
Student: But I'm really worried about not getting the formatting correct.
Professor: Just pay attention to the guidelines I passed out in class. If you want, you can talk to my teaching assistant about it more. To make an appointment with her, talk to the department secretary.
Student: Okay, I'll do that. Thanks.
